    Great photos, Justina!

    Our backyard bird feeders are constant sources of entertainment for us…and it looks like your’s are, too!

    I was just thinking, yesterday, about bird toes, and about their joints…. Perfect peek at ‘hatch toes!

    🙂

      Denise,

      For this series of photos, I used a Canon EOS Rebel XT camera with a Canon EF 100-400 lens.

    Lovely photos !
    What’s that mixture you’re feeding ? It looks like sweetfeed-on-a-stick, high calorie food to keep the little birdies warm. Bet the Longears would eat it if they got a chance 🙂

      gazelle,

      It’s something like sweetfeed-on-a-stick, and you betcha… the boys would eat it in a second, I’m sure.

      We put that particular mixture up (along with a specialized house) to entice flickers to our yard. 🙂 Turns out I saw a flicker on that very feeder for the first time on Sunday! 😀

    Fabulous shots! I had to move my feeders and will probably have to build a blind of some sort to get good pictures again.

    What exquisite photos!! Thank you for sharing.

    Such a refreshing change from my Arsenal tour this am where I had to explain that Prairie Dogs do not prey on Red Tail Hawks.

    No, I did not type that backwards.
